This number, set in Agency Setup > Accounting Options, specifies when the system generates and posts agency and direct bill invoice transactions, in advance of their effective dates.

This allows you to print and mail invoices for future installments in a timely fashion. This value can be set to any number the agency chooses. Common choices to invoice in advance are 30 or 45 days.

Example

Set the number of days to invoice in advance to 30. Based on the current system date, when Daily Process is run, any unposted invoice with an invoice effective date equal to or less than 30 days in the future posts and is available for printing.

Any invoice with an invoice effective date more than 30 days in the future does not post.

As part of the posting process, the system assigns aninvoice number, not equal to zero,to the transaction.
